Music Video Tuesday

     
Enjoy the soft and sexy sounds of Cat Power. A Georgian born beauty who is a music gem but also dabbles in songwriting, modeling, and acting (wow, what a job list). If she strikes you fancy, be sure to check her out while she tours small venues this fall (she will be hitting up Chicago Oct. 28th). 
Please enjoy!

A Few Moments From:

Instagram is my newest obsession that doesn't seem to be going away. Every morning I wake up, sip my coffee with one eye open while the other slowly embraces the morning light and grab my phone to flip through the new Instagram pics. 
Being the first week of fall, and feeling the nippy morning weather here in the Midwest I wanted to share a few Instafriends whose pics are worth following.

DIY: Fringe Plant Carrier


I absolutely love my little lemon tree and am going to house it this winter in our office to save it's delicate branches and roots from the Midwest winter frost. 
I really wanted a beautiful carrier (otherwise called the "wheelie thingy"), but the local stores offer very basic shapes and colors, so I decided to add some personal flare to a very basic plastic carrier. Here is how:
Taaa Daaa! I am loving my fringed out plant carrier so much and so is my little lemon tree:)

BRAIDS + SOCKS = TREND ALERT

Two major trends this fall that I just have to steel is the "Heidi Braid" and "Peeking Socks". Why you ask? Because they are both sugary sweet and will be the perfect accessory to my fall garb. This usually consists of floral dresses, skinny jeans, baggy sweaters, light weight scarves, boots, and a colorful bag, so naturally a wound up braid and peeking socks seems appropriate:)
 If you spot me sporting one of the two trends, please lie to me and tell me that I look awesome!

Music Video Tuesday


This weeks video is a live concert view off of the upcoming album Babel from the great Mumford and Sons which will soon be released (9-24-12). 
I am so excited to listen to this album while cruising the winding roads in Wisconsin's Door County late this month! I can't wait, but I will!

Change

It's mid September which means Fall is creeping up fast. The feeling of sipping hot tea and cooking a great pot stew while cuddling up in my favorite sweater overwhelms me and I cant help but think of all the new changes. 
One change that I am ready for is my locks. Last winter I boldly went fire engine red and loved it (for a little while), but trying to get back to my natural dirty blond was way too much work. I want to make a change but with out consequences so I created this hair color board to visually give me a direction. 
I am really liking the lavender shades for fun and realistically eyeing the Cameron Diaz brunette. Any thoughts?
